Answer:
The second number is 90.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first statement isn't at all helpful when you start the problem. Three numbers add up to 185. Big deal. Hold that thought for later.
You need a place to start: think about some quantity to assign a variable name (letter) to. Look at the second statement.
The second number is 5 times the first. If x represents the first number, then 5 times that is 5x. So far, you have this:
x = first number
5x = second number
Next: The third number is 13 less than the second number. "13 less than" means to subtract 13 from something. But what? The second number.
5x - 13 = third number
Now the first statement is useful. All three numbers add up to 185.
x + 5x + (5x - 13) = 185
Combine like terms.
11x - 13 = 185
Add 13.
11x = 198
Divide by 11.
x = 18
Wait! Trick question. The problem asks for the second number, not the first.
5x = 5(18) = 90
Fifty-five percent of the members of the junior varsity swim team wear glasses. Of the team memebers who do not wear glasses, 30 percent of them are in the 10th grade. To the nearest whole percent, what is the probability that a randomly chosen member of the JV swim team does not wear glasses and is in the 10th grade?.
the probability that a randomly chosen member of the JV swim team does not wear glasses and is in the 10th grade is 14%.
Given, the members of the junior varsity swim team wear glasses is 55%.
And the members of junior varsity swim team who do not wear glasses and in 10th grade is 30%.
Let the total no. of members be x.
So, the members of the junior varsity swim team wear glasses (55%),will be
[tex]0.55x[/tex].
The total number of members not wearing glasses, will be
[tex]x - 0.55 x = 0.45 x[/tex].
Now, the no. of members not wearing glasses and in 10th grade will be,
[tex]\frac{0.45x\times30}{100} =0.135x[/tex]
We know that the probability of an event E, P(E) will be,
[tex]P(E)=\frac{No.\ of Favourable\ outcomes}{total \ no. \ of \ outcomes}[/tex]
So, the probability for no. of members not wearing glasses and in 10th grade will be,
[tex]P(E)=\dfrac{0.135x}{x}[/tex]
[tex]P(E)=0.135\\\\P(E)=13.5 \%[/tex]
Hence the nearest whole percent of probability is 14%.

Given 7x + 2 > 58, which number is not in the solution set?
1) 6
2) 8
3) 10
4) 12

Answer:
option 1
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 2 > 58 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
7x > 56 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x > 8
So only values greater than 8 are in the solution set
6 is not greater than 8, then is not in the solution set

Work out the percentage change to 2 decimal places when a price of £60 is increased to £89.99.
Answer:
49.98%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price: £60
New price: £89.99
The difference in prices: £89.99 - £60 = £29.99
£60 - 100% (the original price)
£29.99 - x (the % that we want to calculate)
29.99 × 100 = 2999
2999 ÷ 60 = 49,9833333

Answer:
1) 6 balls
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of balls Elsa can shoot
x + 6 = number of balls Anna can shoot
18 = number of balls together they can shoot
x + (x + 6) = 18
x + x + 6 = 18
2x + 6 = 18
2x = 18 - 6
2x = 12
x = 6
2)2) 20x (3÷ 4)=90 120-90=30 thus left seat has 30 seating capacity.
3)Let x & y be packets of [a] type & [b] type detergent sold
Then 9x +7y =180
Let us say x=7
Then 9*7+7y =180
7y =180–63 = 117
y =117/7=19.2 this will not do as it contains decimal not whole number
Say x=6
Then 9*6 +7y =180
7y=180–54 =126
y =126/7 =18 this is acceptable as it is whole number

every year in delaware there is a contest where people create cannons and catapults designed to launch pumpkins as far in the air as possible. the equation y = 15 + 110x - 16x^2 can be used to represent the height, y, of a launched pumpkin, where x is the time in seconds that the pumpkin has been in the air. what is the maximum height that the pumpkin reaches? how many seconds have passed when the pumpkin hits the ground? (hint: if the pumpkin hits the ground, its height is 0 feet)
a. the pumpkins maximum height is 204.06 feet and it hits the ground after 7.01 seconds.
b. the pumpkins maximum height is 3.44 feet and it hits the ground after 7.01 seconds.
c. the pumpkins maximum height is 204.06 feet and it hits the ground after 3.44 seconds
d. the pumpkins maximum height is 3.44 feet and it hits the ground after 204.05 seconds.

Plssss need helpppp
Answer:
E. FD<DE<EF
Step-by-step explanation:
First I needed to find the other angle which I found by adding the two angles that were given.
103 +14 =117
180 - 117= 63
then to find which sides were the longest I looked and the angles and found their corresponding sides.
<D went with side FE
<F went with side DE
<E went with side FD
The smallest angle was <E therefore the smallest side was FD
The middle angle was <F therefore the medium side was DE
The largest angle was <D therefore the smallest side was FE
I hope this helps!!

We can make a slope triangle connecting the points (4, 12) and (10,0)
We get -12/6, or -2 as our slope & final answer
2)
You can do x/y to find the unit rate for this one, or in this case 18/5 = 3.6
Help please!!!!…
(It’s slope)
Answer:
-3; (8, -20)
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the rate of change we do (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
basically we choose 2 points on y and subtract them while using the 2 points on x and subtracting them
after subtracting them we divide change of y by change of x
for this one i chose (3, -5) and (6, -14)
-14 - (-5) = -9
6 - 3 = 3
-9 / 3 = -3
the rate of change is three
to find the y intercept we can use this equation
y = -3x + b
and then plug in things
ill plug in the first set of coordinates
-5 = -3(3) + b
-5 = -9 + b
b = 4
so the y intercept is b
using this equation
y = -3x + 4
we can find out what value y is when the x value is 8
-3(8) + 4 = -20
solve the systems of equations using substitution
y = -3x + 5
5x - 4y = -3

a line passes through the point -8,-3 and has a slope of -3/2. write an equation
Answer:
y = -3/2x - 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope intercept form y = mx + b to substitute the slope = -3/2 and the point (-8, -3).
y = mx + b
-3 = -3/2(-8) + b
-3 = 12 + b
-15 = b
y = -3/2x - 15

Answer: (8, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
the corner of the triangle which is Q when reflected would end up at (8, -2)
Answer:
(8, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Point Q is on (8,2).
The rule for a reflection over the x -axis is:
(x,y) -->(x,−y)
Notice how the sign of 'y' is changed. This means that point Q' would be (8, -2).

Shelly sleeps for 7 hours 30 minutes in a day. For how many hours did she sleep in the month of January?
Answer:
Shelly slept 232 hours and 30 minutes in the month of January
Step-by-step explanation:
31 days in January, so the equation will be
31 x 7.5 ( I wrote 0.5 because 30 minutes is half a day)
= 232.5 hours
Shelly slept 232 hours and 30 minutes in the month of January
Answer:
232.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, the month of January has 31 days.
If shelly sleeps for 7.5 hours a day, and she sleeps 31 days, we need to do multiplication!
7.5*31=232.5 hours!
